Brother on LP

Limited 45RPM red vinyl LP pressing. 2014 mini album from the Chicago-based Punk/Pop trio. The band's chemistry between Chris Sutter (vocals, guitar), Joe Gac (bass) and Ryan Wizniak (drums) propels their songs with undeniable force and charisma. 'Brother' is a raw, under-two-minute romp that is both claustrophobic and restless. It is joined here by six other slices of crucial pop-punk, including the vicious, swaggering 'Sham King'. As one fan described them on Bandcamp earlier in 2014, Meat Wave are "snotty and radical and explosive - like sneezing while eating pizza". Chow down!
